Do you want me to sit in the corner and rust, or just fall apart where I'm standing?

Anyone have an idea what they might be? ;D Otherwise i'll just call them Unidentified Tanzanian Yellow Slug ;D Probably this kind,there aren't that many yellow slugs in Africa,if any others at all.And Tanzania is just above that area so that fits in as well.

£25 for a book *shock horror!* This is why parents always tell you to get a library card ;D I take it it's not often found in your local charity shop selection? I can pay the bills and rent, get new shoes for the triplets, have a weekend in Blackpool, get fish and chips on the way home, and feed 5 kids for a fortnight for less than that! You youngsters dont know how lucky you are ;D * wanders off to bat the kids round their lugs and tell them that bread and water is a nutritious meal*

No, if I'd told you we lived under a pebble stuck in a tramps shoe, and fed a family of 23 on one digestive crumb, that would be exaggerating....
